Answer:

For this item, we let x and y be the number of bushels of apple that will be used to produce apple cider and apple juice, respectively. The situation above is best represented by the following equations,                                            x + y = 18                                           20x + 15y = 330The values of x and y from the equations above are 12 and 6, respectively. Therefore, 12 bushels will be used to make apple cider and 6 bushels will be used to make apple juice.

Answer:For this item, we let x and y be the number of bushels of apple that will be used to produce apple cider and apple juice, respectively. The situation above is best represented by the following equations,

                                           x + y = 18

                                          20x + 15y = 330

The values of x and y from the equations above are 12 and 6, respectively. Therefore, 12 bushels will be used to make apple cider and 6 bushels will be used to make apple juice.

A set X consists of all real numbers greater than or equal to 1. Use set-builder notation to define X.
vitfil [10]

Theory:

The standard form of set-builder notation is <span>
 
{ x | “x satisfies a condition” } </span>

This set-builder notation can be read as “the set of all x such that x (satisfies the condition)”.

For example, { x | x > 0 }  is equivalent to “the set of all x such that x is greater than 0”.

 

Solution:

In the problem, there are 2 conditions that must be satisfied:

<span>1st: x must be a real number</span>

In the notation, this is written as “x ε R”. Where ε means that x is “a member of” and R means “Real number”

 

<span>2nd: x is greater than or equal to 1</span>

This is written as “x ≥ 1”

 

Answer:

Combining the 2 conditions into the set-builder notation:

<span>X = { x | x ε R and x ≥ 1 } </span>

What is the solution of the equation (4x + 3)2 = 18?
saveliy_v [14]

Hello!

First of all, let's undo the parentheses.

8x+6=18

Now we subtract 6 from both sides.

8x=12

Finally, we divide both sides by 8.

x=1.5

I hope this helps!
